Two years ago, Glory Harrison lost everything, including
her husband and unborn child, in a tragic fire. Afterwards,
Glory left Dawson, Tennessee, hoping to never look back.
She makes her home in Minnesota and begins to heal her
broken life. Glory has one connection remaining of Dawson,
her dear grandmother Tula. While having a lovely
conversation with her grandmother, Glory discovers that
Tula is suffering from macular degeneration and is having
difficulty living on her own. Glory is compelled to return
home to take care of her grandmother. While Gran Tula is
thrilled to have Glory home, she has no interest in giving
up her independence and folding up her life. Gran Tula is a
part-time caregiver for local fire-chief Eric Wilson's son,
Scott, a lovely child who has some difficulties with his
language and motor skills. Eric fears that Scott is
autistic and relies on Tula and her nurturing nature.
Through Scott, Tula remains connected to the world and
feels she's really making a difference.
Glory has her own connections to Eric Wilson. He's the
fireman who saved her life from the fire. Still not fully
recovered from the trauma, Glory has very little memory of
the events. She does, however, have a strong reaction to
Eric when she meets him again and has flashbacks of that
night. The memories don't make sense and she must work with
Eric to figure out exactly what happened.
As Glory and Eric's relationship begins to take shape,
Glory finds herself stalked by a would-be killer who
asserts that she was the one who started the fire that
killed her husband. With few actual memories of the events,
Glory is alarmed at the implications but can't believe
she'd have ever put her unborn child in danger, much less
herself and husband. The stalker becomes emboldened enough
to attempt another fire that puts Eric's son, Gran Tula and
Glory in jeopardy. Finally, Glory begins to put her
memories back together and determines who's after her and
exactly who started the original fire.
ON BLUE FALLS POND weaves a warm and inviting love story
with a compelling family suspense. Glory is a strong,
loving granddaughter who's haunted by her past and strives
to put her life together. Readers will yearn for Eric and
Glory to succeed not only in love, but also in figuring out
who started the fire.
